Any agreement between the Trust and a subadviser may be terminated by the Manager at any time on not more than 60 days' nor less than 30 days' written notice to the Trust and the subadviser. To the extent authorized by the Board of Trustees and subject to applicable provisions of the 1940 Act, the investment program to be provided hereunder may entail the investment of all or a portion of the assets of the Trust in one or more investment companies. (b) Subject to the direction and control of the Board of Trustees of the Trust, Citi Management shall perform such administrative and management services as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the Trust, which shall include without limitation: (i) providing office space, equipment and clerical personnel necessary for maintaining the organization of the Trust and for performing the administrative and management functions herein set forth; (ii) supervising the overall administration of the Trust, including negotiation of contracts and fees with and the monitoring of performance and billings of the Trust's transfer agent, investor servicing agents, cusxxxxxx xnd other independent contractors or agents; and (iii) arranging for maintenance of books and records of the Trust.
